GAAP requires the Foundation to disclose the amount of potential benefit or obligation to be realized as a result of an examination performed by a taxing authority. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, management has determined that the Foundation does not have any tax positions that result in any uncertainties regarding the possible impact on the Foundation's financial statements. The Foundation does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next 12 months. The Foundation recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Foundation did not have any amounts accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2016 and 2015. true CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF THE KING'S DAUGHTERS INC 601 CHILDRENS LANE NORFOLK VA 23507 540506321 501(c)(3) 31000 General Support CHILDHOOD DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ASSOCIATION 1540 Broadway 32nd Floor NEW YORK NY 10036 208258250 501(c)(3) 20750 General Support DEPRESSION AND BIPOLAR SUPPORT ALLIANCE 55 e Jackson Blvd Ste 490 CHICAGO IL 60604 363379124 501(c)(3) 25000 General Support MINNESOTA ORGANIZATION ON FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME 2233 University Avenue W Ste 395 SAINT PAUL MN 55114 411904618 501(c)(3) 54735 General Support NATIONAL AUTISM ASSOCIATION One Park Avenue Ste 1 PORTSMOUTH RI 02871 200032380 501(c)(3) 59375 General Support THE AMERICAN LEGION NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS 700 N PENNSYLVANIA STREET INDIANAPOLIS IN 46204 350144250 501(c)(3) 69000 General Support ANGEL FLIGHT WEST 3161 Donald Douglas Loop South SANTA MONICA CA 90405 953956297 501(c)(3) 10000 General Support BETHANY CHRISTIAN SERVICES 901 Eastern Avenue NE PO Box 294 GRAND RAPIDS MI 49503 381405282 501(c)(3) 25000 General Support BOOKS ALOUD 150 East San Fernando Street SAN JOSE CA 95112 237317533 501(c)(3) 10000 General Support BUILDING BETTER DAYS 4012 Ramsey Dr EDGEWATER MD 21037 811218909 501(c)(3) 11230 General Support CHILD FIND OF AMERICA INC PO Box 277 NEW PALTZ NY 12561 222323336 501(c)(3) 40500 General Support CHILDREN'S BRAIN TUMOR FOUNDATION 1460 Broadway NEW YORK NY 10036 133512123 501(c)(3) 20000 General Support CHILDHOOD LEUKEMIA FOUNDATION 807 Mantoloking Road Ste 202 BRICK NJ 08723 521825483 501(c)(3) 60000 General Support KEYS CORP 308 Sherrill Road Ste 100 SHERRILL NY 13461 161609790 501(c)(3) 5362 General Support NATIONAL MENINGITIS ASSOCIATION INC PO Box 60143 FORT MYERS FL 33906 522299539 501(c)(3) 29000 General Support ANGELS & DOVES 9036 Ripon Ct INDIANAPOLIS IN 46268 383843014 501(c)(3) 19900 General Support CURESEARCH FOR CHILDREN'S CANCER 4600 East West Highway Suite 600 Bethesda MD 20814 954132414 501(c)(3) 22250 General Support MERCY MEDICAL ANGELS 4620 Haygood Rd Ste 1 Virginia Beach VA 23455 521374161 501(c)(3) 45000 General Support OUR MILITARY KIDS 6861 Elm St Suite 2A McLean VA 22101 562483648 501(c)(3) 56055 General Support 19 0 Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 Procedures for monitoring use of grant funds.
